It barred Bhardwaj from posting, publishing or discussing the case, his defence or the complainant&#8217;s family on social media or any media platform.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"10\"\/>The court also restrained him from contacting the complainant, his daughter or any witness, and from tampering with evidence.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"12\"\/><span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"14\"\/>The court observed that &#8220;bail is an expression of the court&#8217;s trust, and it is not a trophy to be displayed&#8221;, while cautioning against public celebrations following release on bail.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"17\"\/>Bhardwaj was detained in Bulandshahr on September 4, hours after the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) protested outside the Parliament Street police station demanding his arrest over the alleged assault.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"20\"\/>The action followed outrage over an interview in which Bhardwaj claimed he had &#8220;cracked the skull&#8221; of the student activist&#8217;s father during the June 23 protest and escaped arrest because of his political connections.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"22\"\/>He was remanded to judicial custody on September 7 and lodged in Tihar Jail.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"24\"\/>The matter is scheduled to come up before the court on October 6 for further proceedings.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"26\"\/><span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"27\"\/><span class=\"em\" data-ua-type=\"1\" onclick=\"stpPgtnAndPrvntDefault(event)\">(With Agency Inputs)<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/city\/delhi\/swatantra-bhardwaj-walks-out-of-tihar-jail-after-delhi-court-grants-3-week-interim-bail\/articleshow\/134332667.cms\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Swatantra Bhardwaj released from Tihar Jail NEW DELHI: Social media influencer Swatantra Bhardwaj was released from Tihar Jail late Thursday night, three days after a Delhi court granted him three weeks&#8217;
